Powerage5 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Presale for 10 of my 12 gigs tomorrow, and another on Thursday. Time to say a little prayer...I was wondering about that today actually! Do you go for tickets in order of gig priority or just random go for it till they are all bought?I've got a priority system, based on different factors including importance of gig (1st of the tour, "milestone" gig, etc), size of the pit, and whether or not we actually need GA. So for tomorrow for example, Houston is top priority because the pit holds 160 people. Fortunately, Texas don't go on sale the same time due to time differences. For the East Coast leg, Charlotte will be top priority as it's opening night, then Buffalo will be second priority because it's our 25th gig, and our "hometown" gig. Last priority will be Newark and San Antonio, because they're full floor GA in arenas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 10 I need to get tomorrow, we're doing GA pit at 6 of those; Charlotte, Boston, Camden, DC, Buffalo, and Houston. 2 GA floors; Newark and San Antonio. Doing seats in Wantagh because there is no pit, and Toronto because the Canadian crowds get too wild at the barrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Presale was an absolute mess...Live Nation didn't put the right number of tickets on sale initially. Finally got all my tickets, though ended up getting pit for Toronto when I went into panic mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'll go back to plan A (but might switch to video for the encores...audio can still be lifted from those to complete the audio set anyway).

Becket Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 So last night I wake up for work (I work midnights) my wife told me my friend called, he was the one getting the tickets. She told me he got the tickets through the pre sale, not the best seats section 400. I was so exited, Half hour later I get to work, he was there and he tell me he had to cancel them because it wasn't through the fan club pre sale, he's going on about it, very serious and convincing and then finally tells me "so I got better tickets" Section 201.
